JMHO...I would never do that!! /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif
Isn't the only difference the stamping of the "405 hp" into the 2001 badge?

Like I said on the other Forum. I may be getting the '01 badge put on my '02. Not to try to fool people, but because I think the '01 badge looks alot better, IMO....

Man, I sure hope the original poster was kidding with his badging tomfoolery... What a joke.
Me, I've taken my '01 badges off altogether. I have my HP numbers written in chalk instead. That way I can just wipe the fender clean and scribble the new HP numbers on it whenever I add a mod.
Puh-LEEZE!

Actually I wasn't kidding, but I'm not sure if I am going to do it. If you look over on CF, someone already beat me to it, so it must not be that silly after all. I wonder how many closet '01 with '02 badge people are out there? Personally, I'll bet there are others out there that saw me get flamed and don't want to own up to it. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

Another approach would be to actually remove the Z06 emblems regardless of Z06 model year. Why? Obviously, to smoke one past your insurance agent who asks to inspect your new C5 Corvette before assigning full coverage and the premium payment due. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif
------------------------
Unfortunately that won't work. The insurance companies are pretty sophisticated today. All they do is ask for the VIN, not whether its a Z06, they know automatically. My insurance policy lists my car as a Corvette Z06 without them ever asking me if it was or not. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_mad.gif Maybe its due to all of the added safety features of the C5, but it isn't any more to insure than my '98 Cobra was and cost almost twice as much new. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif
